I did listen to "The Shadow" on the radio and bet you already guessed the "Grand Ole Orpy" and the "Louisana Hayride".
The first aminated cartoons I remember were seen at the movies - "Tom and Jerry", "Woody Woodpecker", and "Mr. McGoo."
Mississippi did not get a TV station until 1953 and it was a uhf channel and could not reach but a few miles outside of Jackson. In 1954, we got our first TV. Captain Kangroo came on that year but the first tv program I saw was Howdy Doody.
